Drop down list

Former Member — Fri, 17 Aug 2007 11:06:11 GMT

When i use input boxes in my form and I pull data from a table declared and used in my program, in this case, SFLIGHT, I donot get a drop down list box with the available values in the list. What should I do to get the drop down list?

p.s I used the "get from Program" option to get the field from the SFLIGHT table.

Hi Vijaynidhi,

Welcome to SDN....

Are you populating values through the VRM_SET_VALUES function module??

Check these demo programs

DEMO_DROPDOWN_LIST_BOX

RSDEMO_DROPDOWN_LISTBOX

Thanks,

Vinay

Sorry guys but I do not understand wat you just said. My problem is simple. Please provide a simpler answer. ...

This is wat i did.

1. I created a dialog program using the object navigator and declared SFLIGHT table in the top area.

2. I created a screen 100 with PAI and PBO logic.

3. For the screen 100, I went to the screen painter and added 3 I/O fields. All of which I pulled from the program using the "Pull from program/dictionary option" and selected 3 fields from SFLIGHT.

4.Now when I run the program, I should typicallly get a button near the 3 i/o fields which when click will display all the available entries for that field.

but I do not get it. Please advice me on how to get it displayed?

hi,

check for any data object which has list box and declare parameter similar to that

or write some code as

type-pools:vrm.

PARAMETER : p_int AS LISTBOX VISIBLE LENGTH 30.

DATA : name TYPE vrm_id,

list TYPE vrm_values,

value LIKE LINE OF list.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.

name = 'P_INT'.

value-key = '9'.

value-text = 'suresh'.

APPEND value TO list.

value-key = '99'.

value-text = 'aluri'.

APPEND value TO list.

CALL FUNCTION 'VRM_SET_VALUES'

EXPORTING

id = name

values = list.

CLEAR list.

if helpful reward some points.

with regards,

Suresh Aluri.
